“A disconnected phone on which you could talk to your lost loved ones. Could something like that really console people? And what would she say to her mother anyway? What could she possibly say to her little girl? The thought alone made her dizzy.”The voices are carried away on the wind to their loved ones, and while Yui is drawn to the phone box, she never goes inside. She meets Takeshi, a surgeon who recently lost his wife, leaving him with his mother and a three-year-old daughter, Hana, who has stopped speaking. Takeshi talks to his wife through the phone about the life and plans he and his daughter have.
